QUICK TIPS
– All machines have diagrams stating the major and minor muscles being worked on.
– The first thing to look out for is the adjustment levers, which usually are bright coloured so that they stand out.
– How heavy should you lift? The weights should be heavy enough to fatigue your muscles within 8 – 15 repetitions, but not too heavy that you struggle to complete a full range of motion.
– If you are new to the movements, you can always start slightly lighter and slowly increase the weight as you get more comfortable with the machines.

GYM MACHINES
1. Seated Row
2. Seated Chest Press.
3. Leg Extension
4. Seated Leg Curl
5. Shoulder Press
6. Pec Fly
7. Rear Delt
8. Assisted Pull-up
9. Assisted Tricep Dip
10. Captain’s Chair Leg Raise

This video is the only video among other videos that I really enjoyed a lot and learnt a lot. Whatever I saw was really boring and non-efficient, either talking too much or forgetting to say the use of the machines. Thank you Joanna

I just watched another video which basically just showed that you can adjust the machines, but didn't really go into detail about how you should adjust for proper form or how to actually do the exercises, so this video is helping answer those questions. Thanks!
